I believe hacker news is very much so relevant to hackers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_(programmer_subculture)

I believe that jsdb.io is also a fine name for a database of js libraries. I find it easy to remember. While looking at the url might be misleading before you've visited, once you've seen the site it'll be clear.

That was tongue-in-cheek, see the parent comment.

BTW, I don't think jsdb is a bad name, but it's already taken.

With two unrelated projects I don't see a huge problem... People are not going to confuse the two, and I dont want to go into which is "more appropriate". Both jsdb.org and jsdb.io are completely free to name themselves as they want. No trademarks, no infringements. It was honestly a really nicely appropriate and memorable name for the service.

It was also a steal for a four letter domain name :)
